The Sacramento Youth and Alcohol Coalition was formed in November of 2007 to develop community level prevention strategies targeting teen alcohol use. Building on years of stakeholder experience and the strength of collaboration, the coalition brings together existing prevention organizations that have the power to make a difference in the lives of our area's youth.

Stakeholders representing youth groups, community prevention programs, schools and government agencies bring unique skills and assets to this community wide effort. Bi-monthly meetings serve to strengthen existing community networks and develop evidence based prevention strategies.

Administrative support for this coalition is provided by UC Davis Health System Trauma Prevention Program by grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
